Cloverfield isn't meant to be watched up-close, and with a full stomach (if you're squeamish, and vomit easy). It's a "love it or hate it" movie, so i can understand why there are people who hate it....but to compare it to a piece of shit that idiot uwe boll made is blasphemy!
Cloverfield's characters arn't there for you to fall in love with. The same goes for the weak story. the characters and sotry are there to provide reason as to why someone would run around the city with a camera- on that note: the camera is shaky because th person operating it is RUNNING and is in a state of PANIC. no one on this earth, not even paraplegics will keep still if some shit like that happened!
@LH- i loved superbad!

the mention of phallic demons posessing a fat kid made me LMAO!
